About Nesma Studio
The brand
Nesma is a luxury fashion brand founded by Bahraini fashion designer Haya AlFadhel.
The name in Arabic translates to breeze or breath of air.
Picking up from its definition, every piece is designed with
sustainability in mind and a focus on modesty and elegance to cater to the modern Arab woman.
The inspiration behind every collection almost always touches upon fragments of nature, and the subtle varied forms of art and culture.
Be it through the feminine drape of the silhouette, or the elusive embellishments, the pieces are contemporary and timeless.
